Heartily Gratitude

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Thursday, 12 Mar '09

“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.”

--John F. Kennedy

My Thoughts:
Most of the times we say thank you to people but the other person knows that’s a blank envelope. You are saying that just for the sake; to complete the tradition.

That’s not what gratitude is, it’s only a gesture to complete the tradition! Gratitude is what you really say from your heart and you live by your words.

The incomplete truth

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Thursday, 26 Feb '09

“Fight for your opinions, but do not believe that they contain the whole truth, or the only truth.”

--Charles A. Dana

My Thoughts:
Of course you should fight for your opinion. If you think something is correct then you should stand for your point of view. But there are times that whatever you know could be half the story.

And this half knowledge of yours would have led you to a wrong conclusion. Thus, do not rule out the case that you could be wrong. So stand for your views but don’t be adamant by ignoring the facts that come your way.

Beat Me

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Monday, 12 Jan '09

“Beat me with truth, don’t torture me with lies”

--Anonymous

My Thoughts:
It is often stated that truth is painful. Yes it is, but you cannot runaway from it. But once you tell the truth, you are relieved of the burden and so is the receiving end.

Those who prefer to hide truth with lies; they are torturing themselves and others. They cannot concentrate on the future as they have to keep hiding the truth.
